At the beginning of the year Bunny, my friend and regular support worker, set off for Mexico and Columbia for six months. I think about her often and wonder how she’s getting on, particularly on the days she used to support me.

When she stayed at the castle she enjoyed a cuddle with my very soft Mr Otter glove puppet. So for Christmas I gave her a small equally soft hedgehog finger-puppet to take with her on her trip.

Yesterday she sent me an amazing photo of her hedgehog sitting on a wall with dramatic scenery stretching out behind him. The photo’s beautiful and funny and I love thinking about the adventures they’re having together.

Big love to Bunny and hedgehog wherever you are.
